I am usually not a huge wearer of greens… But I think Absinthe might turn me around – this yellow green is the PERFECT shade for my blue eyes!

Sorry for the terrible iphone pics by the way!
So while I was organizing my pigment drawer I accidentally found a dupe for Lumi that I already own! Make Up For Ever Star Powder No. 944 looks like an almost exact dupe for Sugarpill Lumi to my eyes. The blue and green reflects are identical. In comparison of textures, the two are slightly different – I have a much easier time swatching and building up Lumi – the MUFE Star Powder is very dusty and superfine and I had to keep building over the same area to get the desired effect. Side by side, I find it impossible to tell the two apart! I tried to take several pictures of my swatches to get a good comparison. Swatched over Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy.

Now where the two absolutely differ is in value and price… The Make Up For Ever Star Powder is $19 for 1 gram/.09oz. The Sugarpill Chromalust costs $12 for 5 grams/.19oz. WOW.
And Lindsay, THANK YOU for reminding me – I wanted to show a swatch of Lumi over a dark base… It turns a beautiful deep green color.
